Cardiff vs Blackburn Betting Tips &— Under 2.5 Goals

Both teams enter this Championship match aiming for a victory that could propel them nearer to the promotion playoff positions.

Cardiff City, currently in 14th place with 40 points, has a significant challenge ahead to enter the promotion playoff spots, as they lag behind sixth-placed Coventry City by a significant 11 points. The team’s form has been poor recently, with a 4-1 loss to Norwich City in their most recent Championship game highlighting their struggles. This was their sixth loss in their last seven matches.

Cardiff’s performance at home has been inconsistent this season, having recorded six victories, two draws, and seven defeats in 15 Championship matches at Cardiff City Stadium. They are presently in a five-game streak without a home win.

Blackburn Rovers are currently in 17th place with 37 points, only five points away from the relegation zone. Despite obtaining a 2-2 draw against Preston North End in their last game, they have suffered seven losses and achieved only one victory in their past 11 league matches.

The Rovers have been performing extremely poorly on the road, losing six out of their last seven away league matches.

Examining the head-to-head statistics suggests a close game. Blackburn narrowly triumphed with a 1-0 victory at Ewood Park in their latest Championship encounter. The Rovers have managed to win four of their previous five games against Cardiff, all with the identical scoreline.

Considering both teams lack of form, we can expect a tight contest with chances few and far between. With that in mind, I´m backing under 2.5 goals scored on Tuesday.
